I see the newer firmware the menu option gives the ability to setup a specific RESTAPI user.
I've created a user (called ‘restapi’) and got a token for it, but when I curl to it, it gives me authentication error. Any ideas? (see curl output below)
I do notice when creating the RESTAPI user, it mentions a PKI group. I have this disabled this setting when I created and tested access, but then the message box with it enabled says “REST API clients must use client certification authentication…” As mentioned I turned this off, but suspect this is the issue – as it does say must. I drop down the PKI drop box but don’t see a PKI group and have no idea how to create one, I’ve looked but cannot work it out. I’ve tried documentation on Fortinet site, but its fairly average. Any help would be appreciated. Here is the output of a basic curl I'm running:

Did you find a solution ?
I'm using Python have same issue.
<TITLE>401 Authorization Required</TITLE>
Have you used the logincheck , I believe even with the defined user, you still make the calls in the same way.

This server could not verify that you
are authorized to access the document
requested. Either you supplied the wrong
credentials (e.g., bad password), or your
browser doesn't understand how to supply
the credentials required.<P>
<P>Additionally, a 401 Authorization Required
error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.
</BODY></HTML>
try curl and see what happens against the URL
e.g
curl -v -k -d '{"Authorization":"9qcGftQshfk9Hhqp9Gzxxx7rd14djgi"}' -H "Content-Type: application/json" -X POST "https://x.x.x.x/logincheck/blahblah" I will probably test it tonight if I have the chance and add a new post on the blog. Been working some forcepoint SMC API issues so I'm all "API"'ed out at this time ;) So we use a apikey also in the SMC and making our call to the correct URL will provide a status.code 200, the fortiOS should be similar I suspect the issues is a bad key or wrong URL path. IIRC logincheck is not used but I could be wrong. Ken FelixPCNSE
